New around here? All our wedding planning tools and how they work
First things first: congratulations! 🎉 If you’ve just said “yes”, you’re probably floating somewhere between pure excitement and “wait… how do we actually plan a wedding?” Take a deep breath. We’ve got you.
At Easy Weddings, we’ve helped hundreds of thousands of Australian couples plan their big day, and along the way we’ve built a suite of smart, simple planning tools designed to make wedding planning feel less overwhelming and a whole lot more fun.
Think of it as your digital wedding HQ. One login. One dashboard. Everything you need.Here’s a walkthrough of our planning tools, how they work, and how they’ll help you go from newly engaged to “we’ve got this”.
Your wedding, all in one place
When you log into Easy Weddings, you’ll land in My Wedding, your central hub for planning progress. This is where everything lives, from your to-do list to your guest numbers, budget, seating plan and more.
No spreadsheets. No sticky notes. No 47 browser tabs.Just one place to keep your planning organised and your stress levels down.
The to-do list: your wedding planning roadmap
Wedding planning involves a lot of moving parts, and remembering them all is half the battle.
Our To-Do List is a step-by-step checklist that breaks down everything you need to do, when you need to do it. Tasks are automatically sorted by due date, so you’ll always know what’s coming up next and what might be overdue (no judgement).
You can:
- Tick tasks off as you go (very satisfying)
- Search and filter tasks
- See progress at a glance
- Use built-in prompts that guide you through the planning journey
It’s like having a wedding planner in checklist form, minus the hourly rate.
The guest list: because numbers matter
Before you can lock in venues, catering or seating plans, you need to know who’s actually coming.
Our Guest List tool makes it easy to add, manage and categorise your guests in one clean, simple view.
You can:
- Add guests in seconds
- Categorise them (family, friends, work, etc.)
- Track dietary needs and whether they’re children
- Search and filter your list as it grows
And because this tool connects seamlessly with other planning features (hello, seating planner), you’re never entering the same information twice.
Event manager and seating planner: where it all comes together
Once your guest list is set up, you can move into Event Manager and Seating Planner, two tools that work hand in hand.
Event manager
This is where you manage attendance across different events, like:
- Ceremony
- Reception
- Recovery brunch (if that’s your vibe)
- You can assign guests to events and keep everything neat and organised.
Seating planner
When it’s time to seat everyone (arguably one of the trickiest parts of planning), our Seating Planner keeps things visual and intuitive.
You can:
- Create tables in seconds
- Drag and drop guests into place
- Switch between ceremony and reception views
- Track progress as you go
No messy sketches. No last-minute reshuffles with pen and paper. Just clear, flexible planning that adapts as your guest list changes.
Budget calculator: stay on track and on budget
Money conversations can be awkward, but planning tools shouldn’t be.
Our Budget Calculator helps you track spending without the stress. Set your total budget, then see how it’s allocated across key categories like reception, photography, fashion, flowers and more.
You’ll be able to:
- See how much you’ve spent and what’s left
- Track expenses by category
- Add custom categories if needed
- Adjust your budget as plans evolve
It’s clarity, without the scary spreadsheets.
Wedding website: your digital info hub
Your wedding website is often the first place guests go for details, and ours makes it easy to keep everyone informed.
With the Easy Weddings Wedding Website, you can:
- Share your love story
- Collect RSVPs
- Display event details, timings and locations
- Link to your wishing well
- Update info in real time
Best of all, it’s free, beautifully designed, and can be created in minutes. No tech skills required.

Guests can contribute online to:
- A honeymoon fund
- A home deposit
- Wedding costs
- Or a completely custom fund you create
Why couples love it:
- Easy to set up
- Accessible for guests anywhere in the world
- No bulky gifts to transport home
